It’s that time of the year when celebrities and some of our favorite artists attend a music festival known as Coachella. Meanwhile, many of us stay on our couches while simultaneously refreshing our Instagram feed and suffering from a severe case FOMO (fear of missing out). Luckily, YouTube conducts a live stream for those who are unable to attend. You can participate in Coachella from the comfort of your own home in an event called “Couchella.” Here is our itinerary for the entire weekend so you don’t miss a thing:
Friday, April 22
8:00 a.m. — Today is the start of the one of the best weekends of the year, so plan out your outfit for the day, eat a huge breakfast and leave for school to get the day started. Only a few hours until the festivities begin!
10:00 a.m. — The excitement is building, but your one and only job is to remain focused in class.
2:00 p.m. — It’s prep time! Put on your most comfy clothes, plan out the sets you want to watch and scroll through your Instagram feed to catch up on what the celebs and fashion bloggers are wearing.
5:00 p.m. — The live streaming has begun. You’ll want to order in pizza because you don’t want to miss a thing, like that one time Madonna made out with Drake.
7:00 p.m. — Call a friend over to make it an official Couchella dance party.
1:00 a.m. — Day one is over. Time to recharge and get some sleep for Day Two.
Saturday, April 23
9:00 a.m.- It’s the second day of the fest and out of excitement, you are wide awake and ready for a full day of music and dancing.
11:00 a.m. — Grab your swimsuit and head to the pool. Relax and soak in the sun on a beautiful Austin day.
3:00 p.m. — After several hours of sunbathing, remain calm as you go through a ton of snaps from celebrities having fun. Remember, you’re having fun too.
5:00 pm — Another eventful evening of live performances has begun, and you’re prepared to stream it all from home.
9:00 p.m.- Disclosure is playing and it brings back ACL memories. Make sure your BFF is by your side to relive those moments all over again.
2:00 a.m.- Relax and get some sleep. Couchella weekend is almost over! [teen wolf stiles stilinski exited papa roach personal crap]
Sunday, April 24
10:00 a.m. — Stretch and recover for the last day of the fest. Put on those crazy pajamas, order your favorite take out and rest on the most comfortable part of your couch.
5:00 p.m. through2:00 a.m. — Jam along with the crowd to all of your favorite songs while eating Torchy’s. This is the cherry on top of a lively weekend. Don’t miss out on Calvin Harris’ set as he closes out the festival. He brought out Rihanna for the first weekend, so we look forward to seeing who he brings out this weekend.
2:30 a.m. — Couchella 2016 is over, but you already know how great it will be to attend next year’s big event!
